  • Abstract
    Linearizing circuits for opened and closed p-n junctions are suggested and analyzed theoretically, in which the third-order and all even-order non-linearities are totally cancelled by external linear circuit elements and using of the symmetrical nonlinear circuits. Higher-order non-linearities are also reduced by two to five orders of magnitude. The theory is corroborated by an experimentally investigated V-I curve of one version of the linearized opened P-N junction.
